Title: Gearbox bolts
Post by: tech1889 on 06 March 2011, 14:16
Hi guys..

I need to mount my ABF up to my engine stand for the refurb.. and 2 of the standard gearbox bolts fit but 2 of them are too small in length.. ive measured the width of the bolt and its M10 but i wondered if this was standard pitch thread or a fancy one ??

If they standard will these bolts hold it fine ??

Thanks

They will be fine. Im pretty sure the thread pitch is a standard one.
